Not A Chapter

I was reading this bomb ass book and I came across a fellow reader who is also a writer that started off as a great supporter at the beginning of the book. She was giving lovely feedback at first.

But then at the drop of a dime, she turned and did a 360 and began dropping comments on the author books that were pretty much-backhanded compliments, then slowly taking subliminal digs at some of the characters.

I mind you, the book is doing extremely well and has great views, votes, and reads.

But it's just that one fake ass supporter, that is also a writer that truly bothers me because writing is damn sure not easy, and most writers write because we enjoy it, and to some of us writers it is our only escape or outlet to let out our feelings or creativity from what we think of in our mind.

Some writers actually put their experiences in their books and may add a twist to it, and then again some just make it up as they go.

Not every writer writes the same, we all have different styles of writing or the way we build up our characters and or writing process.

Just like we all come from different backgrounds. Some of us are poor and may come from broken homes, some may be rich and have not one care in the world, some of us may have been orphans or had hard lives. Some of us were fortunate enough to earn a degree and became a teacher, doctor, fireman, cop, dental assistant, etc.

Some of us may not have been as fortunate and could not afford to go to college and get a degree, or dropped out of school, or were born with a learning disability and writing is all we want and know how to do.

You honestly don't know what we all are going through in life, or have been through and will go through in life.

So with that being said if you are going to support someones writing/work

Please stop taking subliminal digs at the author's characters, stop giving backhanded compliments about the author's work or writing process.

Would you honestly want someone to come to your books and degrade something you have already created? The work that you put your time and energy into?

The next time you think about taking a subliminal dig or degrade someone's work, try putting yourself in second-guessing. You have no idea if that person is strong-minded or is weak minded and drops into some type of depression to the point they start second-guessing themselves and gives up on writing altogether.

That is just not right or fair in my opinion, especially when writing could be their only escape but your subliminal digs or shady comments pushed them to stop writing.

Let's start uplifting one another, and actually, support each other. It is bad enough that there is so much hate in this world, please don't let that hate boil over into wattpad.

I apologize for my long drawn out status but this has been really plaguing my mind and I just had to finally speak up
